Petition To Rename Clarence Thomas Building Down
The petition to rename a building named after Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas no longer exists. “An alumna of a Georgia college has canceled her petition demanding that the college remove Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ name from a campus building,” Troy Worden reported on The Daily Signal on October 29,, 2018. “More than 2,400 people had signed an online petition calling on the Savannah College of Art and Design to rename its Clarence Thomas Center for Historic Preservation.”
“The petition webpage at Change.org was still up Wednesday afternoon, when The Daily Signal spoke with Sage Lucero, creator of the petition, in a telephone interview. But by Thursday evening, the petition had been taken down.” As we have reported, the petition to rename the building inspired a competing plea that was signed by ten times as many people.
